Battle Begins 10

Jiliang's keen mind rapidly flashed through countless possible responses, only to reject them one by one in an instant.

She realized that, among all available means of attack, excluding every futile conventional assault, only the following two methods had any possibility—indeed, any theoretical possibility—of breaking through Forbidden Gundam's Energy Deflection Armor and effectively bringing it down!

The first method was obvious—using pure physical ammunition to strike Forbidden Gundam!

As the most primitive kind of physical weapon, solid ammunition operated on entirely different principles from beams. It did not involve interactions between particle streams and magnetic fields, and therefore would not be disrupted by the Energy Deflection Armor.

It was a strategy of using the straightforward to counter the indirect.

The second method carried an almost purely theoretical possibility, one that depended utterly on Jiliang pushing her own abilities to the limit—she had to strike at extreme speed, faster than Forbidden Gundam's pilot could react neurologically, hitting it within the fractions of a second, or even milliseconds, before the opponent could activate and deploy the Energy Deflection Armor!

This was undoubtedly a race against time, placing almost brutal demands on the pilot's reaction speed and predictive ability!

She had to fire the beam almost before the enemy made a defensive move!

Only these two methods were, in theory, the sole means of breaking through Forbidden Gundam's defenses and bringing down that monster!

Jiliang's gaze became incomparably deep, filled with challenge and danger.

That roar came from Clotho. Being kicked away by
